Gods rest ye
If only that were what it's all about
Communal fire, warm and glowing
Cooking up feast enough to
fill our bellies and larders
for wintry weeks to come;
Exchanging gifts our separate
crafts empower
with wishes of good will,
good cheer, inebriating spirits
raised and quaffed against
chill fear of dark;
If only peace and sensitive portrayal
of the gift of human frailty
were the point and purpose of
a season,
voices pitched to harmonize
for beauty's sake;
If only we could reach into
legendsโ epiphany,
reach out in simple empathy,
if only we could simply be
merry.

A woman entered the pharmacy, approached the pharmacist, made direct eye contact, and began to speak.
"I would like to buy some cyanide."
The pharmacist asked, "Why in the world do you need cyanide?"
The lady: "I need it to poison my husband."
The pharmacist's eyes got big and he exclaimed: "Lord have mercy! I can't give you cyanide to kill your husband! That's against the law! I'll lose my license! They'll throw both of us in jail! All kinds of bad things will happen.
Absolutely not! You CANNOT have any cyanide!"
The lady reached into her purse and pulled out a picture of her husband in bed with the pharmacist's wife.
The pharmacist looked at the picture and replied: "Oh, now That's different. You didn't tell me you had a prescription."

These people - all of them, without exception, are theives and murderers. Humans without humanity. A cancer upon the earth.
Sacred Night
Dancing darkness.
Sparkling stars, promise eternal light.
New days, new dawns, new destinations
open into never seen visions.
Wonder creates, gracefully navigates
through veils each cast away.
Luminous color array.
Lightning aurora
bursting through.
Breath, piney memories.
Crackling branches signify fireโs
welcome warmth.
Taste todayโs luscious fruit,
synaptically synergized ecclesiastic energy.
Learning again and beyond and ever
peace, sacred peace.
Emotive gesture.
Barriers denote sacred place
imagined into form, into visions, into life.
Magickal fluids immersed in ether
grow soul in ceremony
of give and take,
the awareness of love.
I sing my sacred song along emergent
lines, twining elemental splendour.
From the depth of antiquity,
the breadth of possibility,
the chemical equation
of air, light, vibration,
peace, love, joy
to all of Earth and beyond.
Blessed Be

Mastodon / Fediverse question.
Home, Local, and Global (Federated) Timelines. Did those options disappear?
On the desktop version of Mastodon, there used to be (as of 2 days ago) a menu item, "Live Feeds," to choose which feed to browse. Now it's not there.
(If anyone knows a pertinent hashtag for this question, please put it in a comment. Thanks.) #FediTips @FediTips

@lfisk
Yeah, the first issue is from 2023 and was just bringing in the "Live Feeds" option.
I'm not sure whether the second link is related.
Either way, it's something the mastodon.online admins would know.
Hereโs the response from the admin:
โWe are actually planning to disable the "live feeds" functionality on both mastodon.social and mastodon.online as it generally provides a poor method of discovering good posts and often has a lot of spam. (It's a new feature so we're testing it at the moment on mastodon.online.)โ
My comment would be: Itโs interesting to say that removing something is a โnew feature.โ
Thanks for passing that on, interesting!
To be fair, mastodon.social is way way too large, not surprised that they find these features unmanageable ๐ฆ The live feeds are designed for a decentralised network where people are spread out on lots of reasonably sized servers rather than a supergiant.
Hopefully this is just an option for an admin to switch them off if they want to rather than remove them from every server.
Iโm thinking that this will motivate me to go to a smaller server.
Hereโs the other part of the email (I ran out of characters before):
โWe do have the ability to opt people back into it, but we would like to understand how people still use it if they do need access to it again.โ
Good luck with it ๐
